and the most-resposnsible-mother-of-the-year-award goes to...

i figure it's never a good thing when the phone wakes you up. especially when your conversation goes something like this...

*riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing*

rocketgirl: (sleepy & groggy) hello?????
chief dan george middle school: hello mrs zalys, we are just wondering where your son is today?
rocketgirl: i'm not sure. what time is it?
cdgms: 930 in the morning MAM
(rocketgirl is now out of bed walking to Quinn's bedroom & trying to process this 930 am bit that she just said)
rocketgirl: hmm. looks like he's in bed. he's still sleeping
cdgms: will he be joining us today?
rocketgirl: i don't think so. thank you for calling.

tomorrow i will be sure to send him with a note to excuse him at lunch to go buy smokes or something.

everything happens for a reason. love, ROCKETGIRL. xo
